The ‘silent’ brain cells that shape our behaviour, memory and health

Dopamine neurons—the cells that drive reward & motivation while we’re awake—become surprisingly active during nonrapid eye movement sleep right after we learn something new

A new study shows psilocybin reshapes brain circuits linked to depression by weakening rigid cortico-cortical loops that trap people in negative thinking and strengthening sensory-motor pathways that help restore cognitive flexibility.

Circadian dysfunction correlates with disease severity in neurodegeneration, highlighting the molecular clock as a key biomarker and therapeutic target

UQ’s Queensland Brain Institute researchers showed scanning ultrasound is safe and well-tolerated in a first-in-human pilot study—an important step toward Alzheimer’s disease treatments.

Aging Out of Fucks: The Neuroscience of Why You Suddenly Can't Pretend Anymore

A new animal study highlights how important uninterrupted sleep is to recovery after a traumatic brain injury, finding that fragmented sleep worsens symptoms that a TBI produces – and that mice without TBI can make up for some REM sleep loss brought on by interruption…
